The ongoing diplomatic spat between Indonesia and Nigeria may cost the two trading partners about $4.145bn economic and trade losses, if it led to a break-up of bilateral relations.
Bilateral relations between the two nations started in 1965 when Indonesia opened its first diplomatic mission in Sub-Saharan Africa in Lagos.Since then the two countries have enjoyed fruitful diplomatic and economic relations which may be eroded by a full-blown diplomatic spat over the assault on a Nigerian diplomat, Abdulrahman Ibrahim, by immigration officials in Jakarta on August 7, 2021.
But Harahap insisted that the incident was triggered by Ibrahim’s refusal to identify himself when accosted by the immigration officers, adding that he also injured one of the men during a scuffle.
